ROOF PARTY

Midwest Living

Summer 2025

WITH MORE THAN 100 CONTAINERS THRIVING ATOP HER CHICAGO TOWNHOUSE, BETHANY BEY KNOWS ALL ABOUT GROWING UP.

WHAT PLANTS WILL THRIVE IN CONTAINERS? FOR BETHANY BEY, THE SKY'S THE LIMIT-SUNFLOWERS, GLOBE AMARANTH, RED ECHINACEA, BLACK-EYED SUSANS AND EVEN MILKWEED TO LURE MONARCHS.

On a summer morning, before she sits down to work, you'll find Bethany Bey outside her house, clipping zinnias and cosmos or harvesting raspberries for breakfast. But if you're picturing her roaming a large lawn, think again. Bey gardens entirely on a rooftop in the heart of Chicago.

She was raised in rural Indiana and inherited her green thumb from her grandfather. As an adult, she longed to cultivate a garden in the city. The dream became reality in 2019, when she and her husband, Andrew, purchased a two-story townhouse with a pair of sunny decks—the perfect canvas for her urban Eden.
